LR44 = Bad :)

You want 357 or SR44.

Subject: [OM] OM-4 battery problem


Hi there,

I've been using my 20-year old OM-4 with no serious problems till I had to  
change the batteries; I opened the slot, removed old batteries, replaced  
them with new ones (2x1,5V LR44) and closed the slot. But the camera won't  
work - "battery check" opition yields no beep and there's no light meter  
indicator in the viewfinder. Batteries themselves can be positioned in a  
way which causes the camera to beep instantly; it happens even with no  
battery slot cover closed. I am a bit worried - the camera - let alone a  
little light leak (again!) - seemed to work perfectly and all I did was  
removing half-empty batteries and replacing them with new ones. Is the  
camera broken or I am sr*wing something up?
